NY police arrest ‘armed and dangerous’ fugitive suspected of murdering elderly father, setting house on fire

An “armed and dangerous” New York fugitive suspected of killing his 70-year-old father and setting the family home ablaze was captured Sunday, ending a multiday manhunt that drew in the FBI and police agencies across the state.

Thomas David Ryan, 32, was taken into custody in the Gilboa area of Schoharie County, New York State Police said. Authorities had been searching for Ryan since his father, Robert Ryan, was found dead inside his burning Greenville home Thursday evening. Police said the fire was deliberately set.
